Car rearview mirror assembly
Abstract
A rearview mirror assembly for a car includes a casing, a mirror and a light-emitting element. The casing has an opening at one end thereof. The mirror engages with edges of the opening. The light-emitting element has a light-emitting body formed along a periphery of the mirror, and a transparent strip encapsulating the light-emitting body and the periphery of the mirror body. By means of the light-emitting element of the rearview mirror assembly, a car driver is aided in evaluating the distance between the car and other neighboring cars by observing the mirror to effectively prevent traffic accidents and increase driving safety.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A rearview mirror assembly for a car, comprising
